Hi, I am ethnomusicologist-anthropologist with origins from Russia and former Yugoslavia (currently living in Greece) and am interested in furthering my research in this area. I am looking forward to be part of this group, get to know other people with similar interests and start receiving news and announcements related to current anthropologies in this region. Best, Alexandra.

THE IDEA OF EUROPE: Memories and Postcoloniality is a two-part event to discuss how Europe can be rethought from a postcolonial and postsecular perspective. The first day brings together memory thinking, heritage practice and postcolonial theory to explore challenges and potentialities in the making of a new European memory which can account for its multicultural past. The second day discusses from different intellectual traditions and perspectives the idea of Europe as an imagined and actual space. It focuses in particular on the relationship between ‘Occidentalism, Orientalism, and the idea of a postcolonial Europe’ which requires a further understanding of the contemporary postsecular climate both within and beyond Europe’s borders.
